Two weeks after building the orphanage, the slum's orphan problem has been solved.
　There are no more children sleeping on the streets of the city, so they should be OK for now.
　Bill and the others are living in the orphanage with an open mind.
　I'm impressed that they're all working hard at their studies, swordplay and magic.
　Well, that's thanks to Anne and Camilla and the others.

　And now that the military police have been recruited and security has been strengthened, the city is starting to become safer.
　So, let's move on to the next plan.

Mr. Fleur, I'm free to use the place where the black market district used to be, aren't I?

'What?　Ah, yes . It's okay, but ...... what are you going to do?
　Yeah, it's all right to use.

I'll put it to good use. I'm out of here.

"Hey!　Detailed description: ......
　Before Miss Flare could finish saying anything, I had shifted to a place.


"Okay, I'm here. Maybe it's supposed to be a holiday today. ......
　While saying this, I was at the mansion in the imperial capital .

''Yes . Ah, Mr. Leons. What's going on?
　I rang the doorbell, and a butler came out.

"I'm here to see Miss Elsie. Are you here?

'Chairman Elsie?　If you're the Chairman, it's your day off and you're resting in your room. Shall I go and let you know?
　Oh, you're here. Good.

No, no, that's okay. I don't want you to leave your room and come all the way up here, so I'll go to my room.
　The house is huge, and it's hard to get from one room to the other.
　I've been here a few times and I know where Elsie's room is, you know.

'All right. Well, I'll go ahead and tell the chairman.

Oh, nice to meet you.
　Come to think of it, I didn't tell him anything first: .......
　Well, it looks like the butler is going to go ahead and tell him and come over, so it's okay .

　Then I slowly walked to Elsie's room and knocked on the door.
　Knock.
Miss Elsie, can I come in?

'No!　Don't go in yet!　When you're ready, I'll open it for you, so you'll just have to wait a little longer!

Uh-huh. Okay.
　I knocked on the door, and when I heard a loud voice, I let go of the doorknob and grabbed it.
　I'm sorry. I knew I should've called first.

　Then, a while later.
　Click.
We're ready to go: ....... If you're already coming, go ahead and call me!
　Miss Elsie, who was sweating, opened the door and complained with a disgruntled look on her face .

'I'm sorry . I'll be more careful next time.

Well, okay. So what's up with you coming to see me after all these years?　I thought you suddenly stopped coming to see me, but you haven't come for a year, it's terrible. I've missed you so much, you know?
　Oh, by the way, I haven't been here that much already ...... I should have come by once in a while .
　I felt terribly sorry for Elsie, who looked really sad.

I'm sorry ....... I'm sorry the school has turned into a dormitory ......
　The truth is, it's because I couldn't leave Belle and Shelly and Leena alone to come here: .......

'Yes, I know . So I gave up on it, too . But the school's been on a long vacation and no matter when, Leo-kun hasn't been here.

'Sorry, I'm sorry ....... I've been busy running the estate: ......
　I've been in the territory since the day of the holiday. .......

'I know that, too . It's not an exaggeration to say it's a sacred place for merchants, Muldean . You were made lord of the city there, weren't you?　I know you're busy. But!　Then you can rely on us for extra help!

Ummm, yeah, .......
　Huh?　Didn't Elsie have this kind of personality?


　Maybe it's just a hazy memory because I haven't seen her in a year, but wasn't Elsie more mature?

'Our Chamber of Commerce would bring it to the development of the city, right?　If you want, I can turn Leo-kun's city into a city full of magic tools.

'What?　Ah, yes ....... I'd like to ask Elsie to do something about that: ......

'Really?　What do I have to do?　I'd love to hear it!
　Hey!　Let me talk!
　There's nothing to explain.

''Umm, yeah ....... Well then, I want to explain it to Master, and let's go to Master's shop.
　Once I explained it to Elsie-san, I was going to ask my masters to help me, but I decided to ask my masters for help because I was going to have a hard time explaining it .

''I understand!''
　When I held out my hand to make the transition, Elsie happily squeezed it with both hands .
　Really, did I have this kind of personality ......?


Master!

Hmm?　What's that voice?!
　When he arrived at Master's shop and called Master, a surprised look on his face came out .

''Long time no see!''

Hey, you!　Get your face out!
　When I said hello, he came very close.
　Are you happy to see your apprentice for the first time in a long time?

"I'm sorry... I live in a dormitory. ......
　I made the same excuse as Miss Elsie.

"Hmm?　Hey. Hey, come here. Elsie, I need you to get in here. Just give me a minute.

No, it's been so long. Enjoy your time alone with your master and brother.
　Master suddenly grabbed me and asked Elsie for permission to do something before he took me into the back room .

'Oh, um, ...... what's going on?　And ...... did you have a personality like that, Elsie?
　Now that we were alone, I asked her what was bothering her.

"It's your fault.

What?
　So it's my fault?

You ....... How come you haven't shown your face in nearly a year?

Well, uh, ...... I live in a dormitory.

You don't think so?　You, every holiday, they know you've been doing adventurer requests with beastly girls and playing with girls in the Imperial City.

'What ...... huh?　Why ......
　The words that came out of Master's mouth were so shocking that I couldn't get the words out immediately .

'How do I know?　That's because, you know, ...... Elsie had her men look into it.

'What?　Miss Elsie?
　Miss Elsie was checking up on me?

That's right. Didn't you go to Elsie's house for a while?
　I've been there?
　Oh, you mean when I was teaching creation magic: .......

''Ha, yes ....... But I was just teaching creation magic, you know?　I-I don't know, what does it matter?

'Huh, I'm going to tell you, because you'll know if we're having a conversation from now on anyway: ...... Elsie, I'm completely in love with that one . . to you.

...... Huh?
　Miss Elsie is in love with me?

'So, I've been relieving the stress of the unfamiliar chairmanship by being with you: ....... You've stopped coming around all of a sudden, haven't you?

'Yes, yes ......'
　I'm starting to read something ...... story: .......

'Then Elsie went nuts. It wasn't interfering with her work, but she started using her people for personal business. ....... Mainly, I've been having them find out what you're doing right now: ......

I see that's what you mean: ......
　So you knew about me.

And you asked me to invent a magic trick.

What kind of magic tool is that?
　You're freaking me out!

It's a magical device that allows you to capture a view on a piece of paper.



'What?　Lie ...... ka, it's a camera ......
　That witchcraft tool I was going to ask for.

"Oh?　Maybe you had the same idea?　That was quite a pain in the ass to make.

'What?　Is it all made up?
　Are you kidding me?

'Yeah, it took me six months to make it. It wasn't long after I discovered that I could do it with light magic, though.
　Oh, my God. This guy is a real genius.

Master is really great. What's your magic tool?

Yeah, Elsie's got it now. She's got her men taking pictures of you: ......

'What?　And that's a sneak peek: ......
　Well, I can't speak for the others either.
　I just saw a rat.

Hmm?　You've been to Elsie's room, haven't you?

Yes, you do?

Then you saw it, didn't you?

What?
　What do you mean by that?　You're freaking me out.
　What's in that room?

The many statues of you and the pictures of you in magic tools.

No, no, I haven't seen .......
　My statue?　Ah, my figurine that I built with creation magic: .......
　Come to think of it, Elsie, you also built my figurines when you first used creation magic: .......
　That was a lot of stuff laying around. .......

'I see . . you hid it.
　Yeah, that's why I can't get in the street.

Did you see the master?

No. It's just what people say.

'Nah, I see. ......'
　So that means someone saw it: .......
　Maybe that butler or something knew about it .
　That's probably why he got to Elsie's before I did.

'Well, as a mentor, my advice to you would be: ......

　My advice?
You're gonna get exactly what you deserve. You messed with me and left me alone, so you'll have to deal with it yourself.

Well, what's the advice on that ......?
　Oh, my God!　You're a master, you can help me out!

That's enough. Anyway, I'm just saying, make up your mind. I mean, they know you've got your hands on a bunch of girls anyway, so the reason you're cheating on them or whatever doesn't work, right?

'Yes, you're right: ......
　I can't say anything back because it's true: .......

"This time you're paying for your overly liberal behavior... Well, once the stress is relieved, Elsie will be a little better off, won't she?　Come on, show me your man.
　As Master said that, he slapped me on the back as hard as he could .

''Yes, yes ......''
　Stress. .......
　We need to do something.
